Pet of the Week: Bean

Some cats are social butterflies, some seem permanently attached to your lap. Bean is a little different. This gorgeous 11-year-old is much more reserved and dignified, he prefers to observe the world from the highest perch he can find. He has his paws crossed for a quiet, patient home where he can feel safe. If a fluffy, independent companion is what you’re after, ask for Bean, ID# A388133.
